5.8.4 Cloning SNMPv3 Users
According to the SNMPv3 standard, SNMPv3 users on the SNMP Agent (on the device)
cannot be added via the SNMP protocol, e.g. SNMP Manager (i.e., the EMS). Instead, new
users must be defined by User Cloning. The SNMP Manager creates a new user according
to the original user permission levels.
¾ To clone SNMPv3 Users:
1. Open the 'SNMPv3 Users' screen (Navigation pane > System > Management >
SNMP Frame > SNMPv3 Users tab).
2. Select the user with which you wish to clone permission levels.
3. Click the button; the 'New SNMPv3 User' window appears.
4. Provide a new user name, old passwords of the user you clone permissions from and
new user passwords.
5. Select a User permission group.
6. If the new user wishes to receive traps to the user-defined destination, select the Use
SNMPv3 User Security Profile for Trap Forwarding option to provision Trap
destination IP and Port. EMS adds this new user to the SNMP Trap Managers Table.
It is also possible to define an additional trap destination after a new user is defined.
5.9 Resetting the Device
When you have completed configuring the device, you need to save your settings to the
device's flash memory and reset the device.
¾ To save configuration and reset the device:
1. In the MG Tree, select the device that you want to reset.
2. On the Actions bar, click the Reset button.
